In the case where the plastic bag is cut and left open for some time, biscuits will become not crispy.

Hi,

I'm talking about the biscuits in a sealed plastic bag. In the case where the plastic bag is cut and left open for some time, the biscuits will become not crispy.

I was wondering if I can replace them with more concise word/words...

Thanks.

Hi,

I suggest 'If you leave the bag open, the biscuits will not be crisp'.

@John, thanks for the suggestion.

@Clive, I think in order to convey the same idea and also to keep the word "crispy", you suggestion is awesome. Thanks.
